ABSTRACT
This project work was carried out to determine the antibacterial activity of three types of medicated soap on Staphylococcus aureus isolated from wound infection. A total number of 20 sample were collected from different individuals with wound infection within the age range of 9 – 49 years form the orthopedic hospital in Enugu. The highest occurrence of organisms was within the age range of 9 – 15 years while the lowest was within the age range of 23 – 48 and 37 – 49 has no occurrence. While the mean of inhibition was 13.1mm in dettol soap followed by Isol soap 8.8mm and the least Tura 7.1mm. The staphylococcus aureus isolated were also sensitive to the commercial antibiotics used as couplers. The mean zones of inhibition was highest in Ampiclox followed by gentamacin and the least is penicillin. The result showed that medicated soaps were effective against staphylococcus aureus involved in wound infection in humans.
